I have always been unhappy with my tummy and have done alot to help make it better but nothing seemed to work. I had my consult. and he said nothing I ever could've done will help b/c my muscles are so far apart. My dr said my issues were hereditary and of course having been pregnant 3 times didn't help the issue. I am very, very nervous and unsure I'm making the right decision!

Great review?

Thank you!!!! I did have it mostly on upper, inner calves. Its a big difference! I'm hoping my upper inner thighs get the same result, I think they are swollen bc they were way smaller the first 3 weeks after surgery. Hard to believe it wasn't painful as it looked horrible! Good luck to you!

You had lipo of your calves?? I hate my calves they are huge but he said there is nothing to suck out its all muscle. My legs are really bad from the weight loss so someday I need a thigh lift and then I am going to have them do something with these calves, you look freaking fabulous, oh that bruising, glad you said it didn't hurt but my word---it was worth it at 1 month PO you look fabulous!

Puggymom, yes tons of bruising but not very painful! And I'm so happy I did it!! I can't get over how I love looking at myself in a bra and underwear, lol, I was always covering myself before....so strange! I have a pretty face but never anything to go with it, lol, now a bit of a body...loving it!!!!

I can see you decided to go through with it! Wow so much bruising! I'm amazed that you had to take such few painkillers. How nice for you!! You look fantastic and have to be totally thrilled!!! Congrats!
